Musica

So finally, I've been exposed to some latin music. Yesterday I went to Palermo and visited a girl named Lucia, I have met her through Virginia. And we walked around where they had a bunch of artesenias, like people that sell handcrafts. I LOVE the handcrafts. I want to buy everything I see! And she showed me this awesome store that sold CD's and movies, and that is when she started telling me about different artists. When we got back to her place, she made a list of them for me to look up. Click on the title of this post to listen to a song that I really like, called Sirena by a group called Sin Bandera, which is made up of a Mexican guy and and Argentine guy. I ate dinner at their house, and their family is so incredibly nice.

Plaza de Mayo

I went walking around Plaza de Mayo the other day, and here are some pictures. This is the Casa Rosada (the pink house) which is the capital building, kind of like our white house eh?




and here are some friendly Argentines!

This is El Obelisco, located in the widest street in the world, Avenida 9 de Julio. I took this pictures a couple of days ago, but yesterday Marta told me not to go near Plaza de Mayo because they had a huge manifestacion, or protest, made up of people that do back up the president. Es un quilombo.


I finally have the internet at home! I'm so happy about that, I never want to have to go to another locotorio again! Chao!
